'Hyperbole' But Some Seriousness In Push To Move State Capital To Springfield

A former Boston city councilor is offering a suggestion he says could help his city -- and Springfield.

Mike Ross wrote a column in Boston magazine saying Massachusetts should auction off its historic statehouse, so it could become condos. 

And he'd make Springfield the new capital city. We called Ross up to ask if he was being serious. He said there was some hyperbole in his column.

Carrie Healy hosts the local broadcast of "Morning Edition" at NEPM. She also hosts the station’s weekly government and politics segment “Beacon Hill In 5” for broadcast radio and podcast syndication.
